Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Mar 11, 2010 6:30 pm Can any suggest a good place to get Fences & Driveways in the Wyndham area? Trying this building gig one more time. Re: Fences & Driveways 2Mar 11, 2010 7:56 pm The cheapest fencing so far has been Jims fencing. BUT his lack of communication is a huge issue!! I've threatened to take my business elsewhere, that got him to finally return my phone call. Best way with him, is to go through the main Jims phone line...then its all trackable. I got in touch with him through his own mobile # after I got an invoice from him. He's doing 2 other fences behind me. From the 1st time I left a message with him, it took 2 emails and 5 phone calls over 8 weeks. Only got a reply after I rang the Jims fencing phone number and complained! The next cheapest was Affordable fencing (I think that was their name) I've been told not to go with a certain fencer, I don't want to get caught out so if you wanna know who it is you can PM me. There aren't to many out that way, so its the one that starts with 'U' . I have had NO luck getting anyone to give me a quote for a driveway yet. Not even an approximate Re: Fences & Driveways 4Mar 11, 2010 8:10 pm dreamhome virgin-builder Can any suggest a good place to get Fences & Driveways in the Wyndham area?

Re: Fences & Driveways 6Mar 12, 2010 2:48 pm Thank you for the feedback! Any idea what I should expect to pay for a 1.8m high fence (per metre)? Trying this building gig one more time. Re: Fences & Driveways 8Mar 12, 2010 6:33 pm Sierra What type of fence? Expect between $55 - $65 per metre for 1.8m capped paling fences. one of my mates got quoted for $60 per metre for colorbond, its a estate requirement Re: Fences & Driveways 9Mar 12, 2010 8:42 pm From memory the Jims quote came out to $53 per metre for 1.8 capped paling fence. Re: Fences & Driveways 10Mar 13, 2010 8:12 pm We have just employed B+A fencing (Bill) and Hard as Rock Concreting (John Corn) Both of them were the 2nd cheapest quotes we got and their communication and service has been brilliant. We have not had the drive or fence actually built but so far we are super impressed with the service and response.

Hi, I have had them in the past and the pros are: Versatile, i.e many different colours and styles to choose… 1 6875 Hi all, Our boundary perimeter fences need replacing (3 sides). From everyone's experience, what would you install? Timber lapped and capped OR colorbond? Thank you. 0 2877 |
